MCQ
Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur, yet $H_2S$ is acidic while $H_2O$ is neutral. This is because
  • A
    Water is a highly associated
  • B
    $H—S$ bond is weaker than $H—O$ bond
  • C
    $H_2S$ is a gas while $H_2O$ is a liquid
  • The molecular weight of $H_2S$ is more than that of $H_2O$

Answer

Correct option: D.
The molecular weight of $H_2S$ is more than that of $H_2O$
d
$(A)$ All group $16$ elements form oxides of the $\mathrm{EO}_2$ and $\mathrm{EO}_3$ type where $\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{S}, \mathrm{Se}, \mathrm{Te}$ or $\mathrm{Po}$.

$(B)$ $\mathrm{SO}_2$ is reducing while $\mathrm{TeO}_2$ is an oxidising agent.

$(C)$ The reducing property increases from $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{~S}$ to $\mathrm{H}_2$ Tedown the group.

Which of the following metal ion is present in Ziegler-Natta catalyst?
An organic compound $P$ with molecular formula $C _9 H _{18} O _2$ decolorizes bromine water and also shows positive iodoform test. $P$ on ozonolysis followed by treatment with $H _2 O _2$ gives $Q$ and $R$. While compound $Q$ shows positive iodoform test, compound $R$ does not give positive iodoform test. $Q$ and $R$ on oxidation with pyridinium chlorochromate ($PCC$) followed by heating give $S$ and $T$, respectively. Both $S$ and $T$ show positive iodoform test.

Complete copolymerization of 500 moles of $Q$ and $500$ moles of $R$ gives one mole of a single acyclic copolymer $U$.
